QML is not necessary, as we don't use it in digiKam. All codes are
only C++/qt/KDE based.

Typically, to start contributing, look in bugzilla digiKam section.
All is sorted by component, including whish from end-users and
dysfunctions. These entries are managed for development purposes in
priority (actually I triage a lot of the bugzilla contents).

The code in production uses Qt5.15, but the future is Qt6.5 and later.
Code must compile with both frameworks.

To contribute, use gitlab merge request workflow. We can process CI on
changes and review code with comments.

Depending of your skill, we can assign you pending tasks. Let me hear
if you have a preference.

Best regards
